I have an XML file containing IE favorites and an XSL stylesheet which
shows them in IE in a nice tree. When opening the file in IE, default
is all folders expanded. I would like to change that, so that I get
folders collapsed when opening the file. I've found a few threads
about this, but cannot implement them because my stylesheet is
slightly different (and also because I'm a complete novice in this).
Below is a portion of the XML file, just to show what kind of entries
there are. Below that is the XSL file I want to change. I'd be very
grateful if someone could help me with this!
I apologize for the long message,
Sven

<!-- Note that in the following templates for comments and cdata, by
default we apply a style
appropriate for single line content (e.g. non-expandable, single
line display). But we also
inject the attribute 'id="clean"' and a script call 'f(clean)'. As
the output is read by the
browser, it executes the function immediately. The function checks
to see if the comment or
cdata has multi-line data, in which case it changes the style to a
expandable, multi-line
display. Performing this switch in the DHTML instead of from script
in the XSL increases
the performance of the style sheet, especially in the browser's
asynchronous case -->

<!-- Note the following templates for elements may examine children.
This harms to some extent
the ability to process a document asynchronously - we can't process
an element until we have
read and examined at least some of its children. Specifically, the
first element child must
be read before any template can be chosen. And any element that
does not have element
children must be read completely before the correct template can be
chosen. This seems
an acceptable performance loss in the light of the formatting
possibilities available
when examining children. -->
